In Touch, the teaching ministry of Dr. Charles Stanley.

Next on In Touch, the attractive quality of kindness.

Do you consider yourself a kind person?

Think about it in a moment. Are you a kind person? Think about it a moment.

Are you a kind person?

You're friendly.

You're generous.

You're patient.

You're easygoing.

You're warm-hearted, thoughtful,

and you're just fun to be with.

You may be thinking, no, I'm not, but I like to meet somebody like that.

But I want you to think about this.

A kind person is a person who stands out in a crowd.

They may not be the one who talks the most, but there's something about a kind person.

It's sort of a built-in attraction.

It's just there.

And when a person's kind, it not only shows in their face, but naturally,

most of all, in their actions. And when I think about that, and I think about the characteristics

of it, it's very evident that it's of the Holy Spirit because Paul says in this fifth chapter of Galatians,

but the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience.

We've talked about all of those.
